Yes I Can is a practical book founded on solid psychological concepts. Dr Laura Ritchie is a Chartered Psychologist, Professor of Learning and Teaching, musician, and importantly, she is someone who found her YES. Yes I Can addresses perception, perspective, self-beliefs, and agency by presenting these concepts through a uniquely inviting, approachable storytelling voice. Laura interweaves psychological theory with personable stories, told in a memoir-like way, drawing on experience from her own musical, academic and personal life. The stories act as a bridge between research and everyday practice, allowing the reader to look both at and into their own experience.
